The new River Mouth district is ready! Land parcels are up for auction now, and auctions will continue over the next few weeks.
Parcels jut out into the water so you can build a dock in the water for boats etc.
The parcel auctions will be 48 hour downwards auctions, with a start price of 1000 EUR, and with a reserve/final price of 50 EUR. View the auctions here.
I'm hoping we get some nice fun builds with some watery seaside town and boathouse vibes! See you there!

Hi all,
Lua scripting is being added to Substrata. This will allow games, for example a bike racing course with timing and a leaderboard, or chess, or even a paintball shooter.
It will also allow interfacing with the rest of the interenet via HTTP requests sent from scripts - making stuff like realtime stock or crypto prices displayed in-world possible.
We are making good progress on this, expect the initial build with scripting to be available soon!
Substrata 1.2.20 is now available.
This release adds Text object support, allowing you to quickly add some text to your builds.
We have also added a chat widget, that works in both the native/desktop client and the web client:
The webclient has been updated to 1.2.20 as well.
